Joyce Chen opened her first restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1958. She found that the selection and quality of Chinese cookware in America didn't live up to her high standards so she developed her own. Today, Joyce Chen Products sources from all over the Pacific Rim to bring the best of Asia to you. The Joyce Chen Sushi Kit is an excellent purchase for the chef interested in learning how to make rolled sushi (maki-zushi).
